Post HVAC Lighting

The other day when I started my car I noticed that my heat wasn't working. I checked my fuses and sure enough, one had blown. Now however, after replacing the fuse, the backlighting on my HVAC controls has stopped working. Has anyone else had this problem???

I lost my hvac lighting too.
I tapped on the console with my hand and the lighting came back on.

There's a bulb just under the radio bezel that you can replace. It's been a while, but I believe you just have to pull out the radio and it's accessible.

Yeah, you can pull the bulb pretty easy. Most of them are blowing out. The bulb is not associated with the HVAC system, just your interior lights.
